how do they taste like?

and are they safe to eat? some food plants actually have lactic acid, etc, so those are not really good plants as food.

    According to my Duke's Handbook of Medicinal Plants of Latin America it is classed as a medicinal plant only, not for regular consumption. It has potential cardiac, hypoglycemic, and respiratory side-effects that could be potentially hazardous if not used correctly. It is usually used as a tea or a decoction.
